The great strike among the 'LOngshOre-
men of New York has already cost S6,OOO.-

only exists among the coal handlers, but
it seems probable that its extent will be

Such a strike is not only q great waste

must result in much loss and suffering.

DEAR SIR; ! am in receipt of yours OF
the 18th asking for information in regard
to water works bonds, of which it appears
you are the purchaser. The books and
papers of the corporation do not show that
there was my sale of bonds or any contract
entered into for their purchase. Neither
do they show that any pc Ner of the Coun-
ell was delegated, constituting any person
an authorized agent on the part of the
Council to negotiate such a loan. There
is no evidence or record or papers of any
kind on Gle explanatory OF the issuing or
sale OF said bonds. At the last spring
election an entirely new set of city officers
were elected. The reckless manner in
which the newly elected officers found the
affairs of the city compelled n
full investigation Of eVerg depart
ment, which has been made with a
very bad showing. This necessarily
causes an examination of the bonds in
question for the purpose of aScertaininC
the full extent Of said loan. An Injunction
has been applied for, stopping every de-
partment of this city till it can be run as
the law directs. This, of course, will
bring up the question of the sale of said
bonds, whether! they were sold in accord
ance with law. There is no disposition on
the part OF any n to repudiate any part
of said bonds if they are as the law re-
quireS. There is a disposition to cover
into the city t~reasuary every cent of said
bonds, and it is for this purpose that the
courts have been resorted to. I think if
you could meet with our present Council.
show your contract, if you have one, and
if all Is - Law requires, Council viii place
itself right towards the bonds. We
want the water works, and we
want your money, and we want
to deal honestly with you, and
from the tone of your letter to Mr.. Boyd /
believe yoq want 10 do the same. There
will be no trouble when We understand
each other. Very truly,
ISAAC CoTTS.

attention to is the tax levy for sinking

ATHEIST AND INFrDEI..

The word athesist is from the Greek
ssatheos, without God, and signifies
one who denies the existence of God.
Infidel is from the Latin 'sinfidelis, 2 sun
faithful, but with us meaning unbeliey-
ing. Atheism is not common nowadays,
but agnosticism-beIief that We do not
know the nature of the controlling power
of the universc-is quite prevalent. Ma
terialisn. which indicates that matter con
tains within itself the power of assuming
its different forms and motions, is consider-
ed by many to be atheism, but it is not
necessarily so, for the materialist may still
point to the Power that gave matter its at
tributes
